No this isn't spam I hope, I'd like to see if anyone is interested in playing Ingress made by Google in UCSC!

The world is the game and the game is basically a hi-tech version of Capture the Flag, and the flags are portals of landmarks and interesting points.Here's what Santa Cruz looks like now. It's the product of maybe 3 people in the opposition driving around keeping everything alive. Things can get boring at SC in this game and if more people play things can get exciting.

You do need an activation code though because the game is in closed beta and no the iOS app for Ingress isn't out yet. Check out /r/IngressInvites where some people may give out codes. If you're willing to play I may give out a code. If you have an iPhone though you can sign up for an activation code now and by the time the app comes out you will get an invitation code.

Edit: To sign up go to ingress.com and request an invite there. You need a gmail account but that's what your uUCSC email account is for :)
